Om denna programvara

Ohm Studio is the first real-time, pro-grade collaborative digital audio workstation. Record seamlessly with distant friends and meet other Steam musicians. Learn from them, teach to them, get inspired with them... or just invite your band to get that demo/commercial production done without the usual time & space constraint you’ve been striving for until now. Ohm Studio is a dramatic change in the way music is created and developed… and a wonderful place to hang around for every musician!

You are the most important feature of Ohm! Musicians sound better than machines and skill & talent are the key to making good tracks. Inspiration comes with emulation. In Ohm Studio like in a real studio, people matter most!

Free version is limited to compressed audio export and 16 bit audio recording. It features basic FX and UVI Ohmplug instrument. It still can use 3rd party vst plugins and you can make complete song with it (within the limit of 10 projects).

Download and install was really quick, then I set up a quick temp track, layed a quick foundation and asked if someone would like to add some bass to the track. 10 Sec later I have both a guitarist and a bass player collaborating with me on the test project.

This is a MUSTHAVE for every studio musican out there who needs free and fast quality help with their projects!! Not only do you have tons of fun, your tracks will be completed a lot faster too, and you also get to know new people from all over the world.

I've been in this kind of business (recording music or sounds) for 8 years (i've recorded the demos of to many bands and musicians) and i can say that Ohm Studio Free Version is very good way for all the people who can't buy a SONAR or Pro Tools or a Fruity Loops Software. It includes a short tutorial for every single button you point with your mouse. It's a good way for beginners or people with a little experience with DAWs. I highly recommend it to people who wants to try to record their own demos or ideas and who doesn't want to download piracy programs or spend to much money in DAWs yet. However, everyone have different hardware so i still recommend to check your own hardware and search for it's limitations.

Take in mind that this product is oriented to people who are not professional at this kind of software but want to record their own things without spendig to much money.

Another thing, the Free Version doesn't have any plug ins and effects, BUT there are a lot of FREE plug ins on the internet and Virtual Instruments. I recommend the DSK Vsti.

This software is just great for you! At least you have a free version, so give it a chance and try it.

It is rather difficult to find performers for that piece/song that you want to write. I know this from personal experience as a composer... especially as one who can't seem to find a string quartet for one of my pieces.

This software, whilst I'm not positive that it's a substitute for something as good as Cubase, is decent at least as freeware. I've yet to purchase it, but the free version still allows for all of the basics that one needs from DAW software.

When you log in, you'll be immediately put into a general chat that consists of all of the other signed in users of this program. From there you can ask for advice, or ask for someone to help record or mix for a project of yours.

You can also have your friends download the free version of this software if you'd like to record them, but perhaps they live rather far away so you don't get to see them often. Maybe they live on the other side of the world and therefore are awake when you are asleep, but that won't matter with this program.

So yeah, I would definitely recommend this program. I don't know about paying for it yet, but I'll update this review if I do upgrade or get more information otherwise.

Music is the way I've made a living for over 10 years now. I have been fortunate enough to make it my job. I am admittedly a Pro-Tools snob. It is still an industry standard for a reason in my opinion. Though I will say that many other DAWs have closed the gap significantly and the arguments can certainly be made for a few DAWs being better for electronic or VI based sequencing. Anway, my opinions should be taken with this in mind.

My initial impressions of Ohm Studio have left me disappointed. My hope was for a fully functional DAW with a sharing feature and solid work-flow. Sadly though, the i/o options are limited, the interface is clunky, editing/mixing is slow, and the few options for customization are buried in a menu system with non-standard terminology. It bears a striking resemblance to Reaper at a glance, but lacks much of that DAWs functionality. (on a personal note, I wish that they had used a different design, Reaper has never felt right to me)

Ohm Studio is compatible with 32-bit VSTs, but not 64-bit, which is an odd choice considering that most DAWs are making a shift to a 64-bit environment. I have also heard complaints of some extremely popular VSTs not functioning correctly. Certain releases from Native Instruments, Toontrack, and Waves have all been reported. (though it is my suspicion that most of the complaints are coming from users who do not have "legit" versions of these, I have Superior Drummer and Kontakt both working fine) The most frustrating issue I've run into is the way it has handled errors thus far. BSOD has been a common occurrence for me. It is incompatible with my digi002 (my interface of choice).UPDATE: Since this review, I have it functioning with the DIGI002

In theory, Ohm Studio could be a adequate entry-level DAW for the amateur masses if they can fix some of their compatibility and stability issues. The tutorials seem thoughtful and clear. Ultimately, as it stands, you will need to pay for a premium version if you plan on creating music regularly. And it is that point where I recommend putting your money into a full-featured DAW (Pro-Tools, Reaper, Sonar, Studio One, etc). The professional applications of this software are limited at this juncture. It works as a basic music creation/recording software and while the sharing feature is a nice touch, the clunky editing and automation will leave most producers/engineers ripping out their hair.

I will be watching Ohm Studio closely though, as I hope it can be improved to become a legitimate player in professional music production. The developers seem to be driven and capable so I look forward to checking out future releases. But for now, I do not recommend Ohm Studio for audio professionals. It's just not on that level yet.

This is an amazing software that lets you do a ton of things. Like work with other people while your in the program, you can also mix all your tracks right there in the program so everything is easy and ready to go. Also since it has the free, pro, and pro xl you can use it if you have the money to get extra features or if your on a budget you can get the basic version.
